Remember the late 90s and the famed banana phone Neo and Morpheus were using in the Matrix? Nokia just took it one step further at MWC 2018 and announced the bright yellow Nokia 8110.
With a sliding cover for the keyboard that really makes the phone look banana-shaped, the Nokia 8110 is really something to behold.
Oh, hi, Mom.
With its 4G support and a very ergonomic keyboard hidden behind the slider, it seems like a wonderful choice for those feeling nostalgic or still resisting the appeal of smartphones.
Because the banana-phone is priced at just 79 euros ($97), there’s not much in the way of features, but let’s check them out:
- OS: Smart Feature OS
- Chipset: Qualcomm 205 Mobile Platform
- RAM: 512 MB
- Storage: 4 GB
- Display: 2.4 inch QVGA
- Camera: 2MP rear camera
You won’t have access to Android apps, but HMD said that it will create a dedicated Nokia 8110 app store that will include Facebook, so there’s at least that!
What the banana-phone Nokia 8110 excels at is, as usual, battery time. A full charge will give you 25 days on standby. Oh, and there’s also a revamped version of Snake for a true blast from the past.
